NaToSaphiX, HS set to join Nordavind

6/1/2020 - 21:20

Niels-Christian "⁠NaToSaphiX⁠" Sillassen and Kevin "⁠HS⁠" Tarn are on the brink of joining Nordavind, HLTV.org has confirmed.

The pair have already been added to Nordavind's ESEA roster and are expected to be formally unveiled by the Norwegian organisation in the coming days.

They have been brought in as replacements for Haris "⁠H4RR3⁠" Hadzic, who became a free agent at the end of 2019, and Håkon "⁠hallzerk⁠" Fjærli, who is reportedly on the brink of joining Dignitas alongside Patrik "⁠f0rest⁠" Lindberg and three former NiP players.

NaToSaphiX will take over the AWP from hallzerk

HS has been out of a contract since October, when he was released by GamerLegion after approximately two weeks on the organisation's bench.

NaToSaphiX was given his marching orders by Heroic in August to make way for Johannes "⁠b0RUP⁠" Borup, who was signed from Tricked. He ended the year in style as he played for mousesports at cs_summit 5 in Özgür "⁠woxic⁠" Eker's stead, helping the team to win the title following victories over OG and G2 in the playoffs.

With these additions, Nordavind will have the following roster:

Ruben "⁠RUBINO⁠" Villarroel
Jorgen "⁠cromen⁠" Robertsen
Jesper "⁠TENZKI⁠" Plougmann
Kevin "⁠HS⁠" Tarn
Niels-Christian "⁠NaToSaphiX⁠" Sillassen

Dennis "⁠Rytter⁠" Rytter (coach)

Nice. Now: -RUBINO

Haha. Tbh I've always like his playstyle overall

2020-01-06 21:31

Well, now when they are about to speak English, since HS joined, they should add another player from outside of Norway/Denmark tbh.

They'll probably have to either way since Nato probably isn't good at norwegian

Surely not, but still does take some time to learn the language + all the different callouts

2020-01-07 16:32

Just play english callouts. If they don't do that already then they're a bunch of amateurs.

2020-01-07 17:05

lol?

2020-01-08 08:12

Clearly better than previous roster

100%

bots

looks solid at least on paper, but nato deserves better anyway

tenzki is a good support and cromen is very capable.

tenzki is also leaving tho

2020-01-06 21:34

For who

idk :/

2020-01-06 23:39

where is tenzki going

2020-01-06 22:58

Dignitas incoming

2020-01-06 21:29

They wont be able to accomplish much I am afraid, although I would really like them to succeed to some extent

2020-01-06 21:30

Who knows what will happen

2020-01-06 22:53

Yeah. Let's hope for the best

Sick lineup, I will pray for them

Cool

HS IS BACK BOIS

2020-01-06 21:24

HS POGGERS

2020-01-06 21:25

I give him 3 months till kicked

2020-01-06 21:43

Ex6tenz next

why HS in a danish/norwegian lineup. now full on english?

2020-01-06 21:26

guess its not a problem, tenzki's gf was/is estonian thats how hs got in the loop I think

2020-01-07 10:16

rip telialigaen

wasted talent Nato

Yaaas

2020-01-06 21:27

not bad

Lets go boys

Nice for NaTo!

Good info, very nice. So many people care about it. :)

Will pray for Them.

Stakkels de fjelddrenge NATO kommer til at munke

ez4tenzki

They almost signed fox but good thing for them he refused honnestly. Looking like a pretty solid team.

Really?

2020-01-06 22:28

He said he got an offer from an EU team with players he already played with. He played with all of them in fact exepet for NaTo ofc

2020-01-06 22:55

Fox > NaToSaphiX By far...

2020-01-07 11:54

can't participate in norwegian league anymore ;C so sad Apeks gonna have no contestants anymore

Yeah kinda sad, but hopefully they will achieve something internationally

2020-01-06 21:33

yep, and hopefully håkon gets to show his amazing talent surrounded by the legends in dignitas, hopefully he gets to shine in the same spotlight as them.

yea i hope so, Hallzerk was by far the best performing player in Nordavind

2020-01-07 00:20

who gives a fuck about tl

2020-01-06 21:44

True, the norwegian scene cares more about being the best in norway rather than doing anything internationally

2020-01-07 00:34

NATO !!! 😀👍

2020-01-06 21:32

Wow

Solid team

I thought they were 4. Then i saw Natosaphix

2020-01-06 21:37

Was hoping they'd keep a Norwegian core.

rumors about tenzki leaving as well, maybe for Apeks player???

2020-01-06 21:48

That would be nice tbh. Apeks has some amazing young talent.

2020-01-06 21:51

Why hs lol

Good luck both of you.

deserves better

Honestly, i would have added Nato over Hallzerk in the reported Dignitas lineup

is HS still good? As far as I can remember he had one breakout tournament a while ago, and he still rides the clout from it?

on penta, he consistently put up solid stats at big events while playing support, this year, he's been pretty bad. overall, he has pretty good aim, but unless his form improves he's a questionable pickup.

2020-01-07 06:30

Yeah the penta era is the last I seen him, hope he can reach that level again.

2020-01-07 07:31

Well, its 2000 times better than Harre

2020-01-07 08:48

Decent change, hopefully nato will IGL

team without future?

2020-01-06 21:45

nice

2020-01-06 21:46

Yessss Norway can end up somewhere

2020-01-06 21:47

Well, this is actually solid pickup i guess, although i think HS is a bit overrated for quite some time now, hes solid.

2020-01-06 21:53

- hs + anj PLS

2020-01-06 21:54

wtf

2020-01-06 22:02

Why not add Danish niko, MSL or take up some lower danish player Or even someone from Apeks (norwegian team)

2020-01-06 22:03

Not really norvegian

Minimum top-15 after March

2020-01-06 22:05

tenzki can bang me anywhere anytime

2020-01-06 22:06

Flag checks out.

2020-01-06 22:07

Now im sad :(

Thats actually pretty sick. Nato finally getting a team as deserved. Tenzki is also gonna leave though so if they get another norwegian instead they can play in telialigaen, but im not sure if that will be nordavind’s priority

2020-01-06 22:10

Looks decent on paper but personally don't think this will go anywhere.

Snakker HS dansk eller norsk?

2020-01-06 22:12

feelsbad, Kevin being used as a filler again :(

2020-01-06 22:13

-woxic , + Godsaphix He needs a way better team..

Damn

2020-01-06 22:25

wow, rubino still alive

Takin' out the Norges from the inside, smart

Not a bad move, but interesting

2020-01-06 22:44

a solid T2 team atleast

2020-01-06 22:45

Rip norwegian dream 😑

2020-01-06 22:46

2020-01-06 22:54

:( Bring home Rain and jkaem. Re-add hallzerk.

2020-01-06 23:18

+1 can’t even play Telia League anymore

2020-01-06 23:58

hallzerk in dignitas pogchamp

2020-01-06 22:51

when will people realize that HS is fucking dogshit

2020-01-06 22:52

Yeah, seen alot of ppl hype him up but can't really tell, i mean i hope that he lives up to the expectations, wouldn't exactly call him "f##king dogshit" but doubt he is THAT good.

2020-01-06 22:57

i thought most people already considered him dogshit, I have no idea how he gets to play on these teams, though to be fair he will probably not move up any higher than this tier 4 trash

2020-01-07 20:53

So Dignitas is really happening? Shiet

2020-01-06 23:01

Uhhhh the Norwegian Telia League requires at least 3 of the team members to be norwegian for them to play. So I guess that means that Apeks will just dominate it now?

2020-01-06 23:05

leezggoo

why dignitas didnt pick nato

2020-01-06 23:10

He is washed up

2020-01-06 23:15

Dignitas only signing old washed up pros

jdm would fit perfectly in that team, rather than hallzerk

2020-01-07 08:06

Wtf man, danish team now? This team will literally smurf in the telenor league now. Demise? No chance. Apeks? No chance. Riddle? No chance.

2020-01-06 23:13

It's English team now 😂

2020-01-06 23:16

i dont see any uk players. nt eurofag

2020-01-07 11:50

2020-01-07 15:34
